Onboarding developers successfully while improving code security through IDE integration

Regarding room for improvement, we have some problems when onboarding new projects because the build process has to be done in a certain way, as Veracode analyzes the binaries and not the code by itself alone. If the process is not configured correctly, it doesn't work. That's one of the things that we are discussing with Veracode. Something positive that we've been able to do is submit formal feature requests to them, and they are working on them; they've already solved some of them. This encourages us to propose new ideas and improvements. Another improvement that we asked for this use case is to be able to configure how Veracode Fix proposes and fixes because sometimes it makes proposals using libraries that go against our architecture design made by the enterprise architecture team. For example, we want them to propose using another library, and that's something we already asked Veracode, and they are working on it. We want to specify when you see this kind of vulnerability, you can only propose these two options.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The best thing is that a person without knowledge about the program can easily understand what happened in our testing process."

"The most valuable feature of CucumberStudio is its use of action words, which allows me to avoid writing test cases from scratch for the most common scenarios."

"The data table that helps in converting a single script to multiple test cases is very helpful."

"The solution is stable."

"CucumberStudio has a very user-friendly interface."

"CucumberStudio aligns with our strategy for data-driven testing."

"The URL is very useful, and it has a very good UI for deploying information of the scenarios created."

"Before Veracode, the application was deployed to the production server and there would be a lot of bugs and issues. Once we implemented the Veracode scan, the full deployment issues were drastically reduced."

"What I found most valuable in Veracode Static Analysis is that it categorizes security vulnerabilities."

"The coverage of backdoors attacks on security that's the most valuable for my clients."

"Regarding Software Composition Analysis, an exceptional feature is that during a SAST scan, SCA is seamlessly conducted in the background."

"Allows us to track the remediation and handling of identified vulnerabilities."

"The Static and Dynamic Analysis capabilities are very valuable to us. They've improved the speed of the inspection process."

"The most important feature is the static scanning analysis, and the reason is that it can tell us vulnerability in that code, right before we go ahead and push something to production or provide something to a client... Dynamic scanning actually hits our Web applications, to try to detect any well known Web application vulnerabilities as well."

"The most valuable feature is the dynamic application security testing."

Cons

"I think it would be better if we could also do the reporting with CucumberStudio."

"A key area for improvement is to revamp outdated components such as HipTest publisher."

"Another kind of deployment might be useful, perhaps an option to install the tool in a local deployment."

"CucumberStudio's API integration could be improved both in terms of reliability and design."

"The reporting needs to be improved."

"I would like to see better customer support."

"A key area for improvement is to revamp outdated components such as HipTest publisher."

"The dynamic scanning feature works, but it doesn't work properly for some of our applications. It doesn't allow us to skip. They claim that we can do this, but it doesn't work when we're scanning the applications in real-time."

"Veracode has plenty of data. The problem is the information on the dashboards of Veracode, as the user interface is not great. It's not immediately usable. Most of the time, the best way to use it is to just create issues and put them in JIRA... But if I were a startup, and only had products with a good user interface, I wouldn't use Veracode because the UI is very dated."

"We would like the consolidation of all the different modules. This would help, so then we would be able to see analytics and results on one screen, like a single pane of glass."

"They need to have a plug-in, a better integration with the development environment."

"It would be nice if Veracode were bundled with some preferred vendors like Salesforce and offered at a discount."

"It is not as fast as Snyk."

"We tried to create an automatic scanning process for Veracode and integrate it into our billing process, but it was easier to adopt it to repositories based on GIT. Until now, our source control repository was Azure DevOps Server (Microsoft TFS) to managing our resources. This was not something that they supported. It took us some sessions together before we successfully implemented it."

"In my opinion, Veracode lacks significantly in most parts, including its UI, its reporting, ease of use, and the features that it provides."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Veracode is one of the more expensive solutions in the market, but it is worth the expense because of the eLearning and the security consultations; everything is included in the license."

"It is expensive. It depends on the use case, but it is very hard to find a pricing page on their website. Instead, they need to analyze your use case, but without knowing the entire project and how you're going to be using Veracode, how many scans you're going to do, if yours is a small business, it is very expensive and it affects ROI."

"I recommend going for a one-year licensing with CA, because currently they are the leaders in this field with more features and a much better turn around time with a cheaper position, but there are a lot of new companies coming up in the market and they are building up their platforms."

"The pricing and licensing are reasonable, and relatively straightforward, and different licensing and subscription models are available."

"They just changed their pricing model two weeks ago. They went from a per-app license to a per-megabyte license. I know that the dynamic scan was $500 per app. Static analysis was about $4500 yearly. The license is only for the number of users, it doesn't matter what data you put in there. That was the old model. I do not know how the new model works."

"The cost of Veracode is high."

"It can be expensive to do this, so I would just make sure that you're getting the proper number of licenses. Do your analysis. Make sure you know exactly what it is you need, going in."

"Veracode is a very expensive product."
